I'd recommend putting a seat on it first. Unless you like it like that.

Nice Z.
I'm actually in the market for a hardtail too...my V10 just doesn't cut it for CC rides...I've got more suits than Liberace, but less than Eastvailhucker.

Im getting better, but I really have very little skill compared to many.
Truthfully, I don't have enough money to get a 6 in travel bike. (575 or something like that). So instead im gonna build up a burly hardtail....
My 3 inch crappy trailbike just doesn't seem worth it....Drive slow, homie.

Im almost tempted to offer you my Tass, Vicious, but I think there's a possibility I might need a bike for college purposes (or if I ever have enough luck for it not to break on my semi-core downhill-esque rides for which I lack talent...
)
Haven't used the damn thing since before I went home for Christmas. If that's still the case after I get healthy, we'll talk.
P.S. Nice, Z. :thumbsup:Days on snow 06-07: 3

I admire folks who can ride over techy things on hardtails while I am about to die on my squishy-cushy 4 inches of travel Originally Posted by Z

Parts
Might have some parts laying around I could hook you up with for cheap to get that thing going, especially for these nice 70 degree days in February. Let me know what you need, I got a garage full of spare parts. Possibly even let you borrow some parts for now, til you get dat cash to pay for the ones you really want.
edit: just realized what a dickhead I am. Z, that is a nice looking rig. I'd like to build up a single sort of like that.Last edited by fondigley; 02-27-2006 at 09:29 PM.

It depends which Cake you get. I'm getting the Cake 1. The DLX has 5 inches, the Cake 1 has 4 inches. I'm getting a deal where I'm getting pretty much all of the components of the DLX on my Cake 1. Originally Posted by Arty50

Are the Imperials built mainly for urban/dj or would that be a good freeride/trail bike too?? (My knowledge only extends as far as dh/squishy bikes, but I'm in need of something I can use for trail riding)
I've got more suits than Liberace, but less than Eastvailhucker.

Pimp ride, Z. I used to lust for that exact frame...that is, until I laid my eyes one of these:
Remind me. We'll send him a red cap and a Speedo.
